Ratio Adjustment Function

Adjust the lever pivot-to-action point in 0.25mm increments (up to 2mm) to change the lever feel. Increasing the ratio results in a shorter, firmer stroke, while decreasing it provides a longer, softer stroke.

For 16-18mm ratio adjustment



Pivot to Action Point: 16mm
Stroke: Longer
Lever Feel: Softer
 
Pivot to Action Point: 17mm
Stroke: Standard
Lever Feel: Standard
 
Pivot to Action Point: 18mm

Compatibility Calculation







64 Titanium Alloy Used

Unlike pure titanium, this titanium alloy contains 6% aluminum and 4% vanadium, offering high strength, light weight, and excellent corrosion resistance. Its density is less than 60% of steel or stainless steel, with tensile strength comparable to chromoly steel.

  Density Tensile Strength (MPa) Yield Strength (MPa)
Titanium (ASTM Grade 5) 4.43 895 825
Chromoly Steel (SCM435)7.8930785
Stainless Steel (SUS304)7.9520205
Aluminum (A7075)2.8570505

Features


Radial Piston
Unlike axial pistons, the lever presses the piston vertically, reducing power loss and allowing precise control.
 
High Clamping Force
The clamp has slot machining inside and uses two flange bolts, improving fixing strength.
 
Aluminum Machined Body
Full 3D machining of forged blanks is done in-house. The body is finished slimmer than existing designs.
 
Foldable Lever
The lever folds during a fall, reducing damage to the master body (replacement lever tips available).
 
Two Lever Sizes
Available in standard and short sizes. Fits the rider's hand naturally for smooth operation.
 
Overhaul Service
Detailed overhaul service made possible by in-house production (items received).
